One-Arm Freedom Canoe Paddle

More Information

This contributed video shows the stern paddler in an OC2 using the One-Arm Freedom canoe paddle. Mastering a synchronized high stroke cadence is an essential racing skill. Outrigger Canoeing is popular throughout the world.

This contributed video shows the bow paddler getting used to the One-Arm Freedom canoe paddle on day one of their trip. I hear that it took a little effort, but he and his paddle partner quickly learned how to canoe in a straight line. The beautiful cliffs of the Black Canyon on the Colorado River below Hoover Dam provide the backdrop to this video.
